Keebler's Fudge Shoppe Peanut Butter Sticks now come in a new Jumbo size. Each fudge-covered wafer stick with peanut butter filling is individually wrapped and can be bought in a box of six for a retail price of around $3.49 with a sales price ranging around the $2 mark.
The elves at Keebler didn't work too hard in their tree for this one. It most reminds me of a Kit Kat Big Kat; it's just a larger version of the original. But since they are individually wrapped, it's easy to pack them as a snack.
What sets a Jumbo Peanut Butter Stick from a Big Kat, besides the peanut butter filling, is the wafer. The Jumbo Peanut Butter Sticks makes use of a lighter, less dense wafer that isn't as crisp and gives it a different mouth feel than a Kit Kat.
There's also more wafer and less chocolate than a Kit Kat which makes sense since one is a cookie and the other is a candy.
It tastes fairly good but a little bit generic in ingredient quality. Still, it's fairly light chocolaty, peanut butter snack. I would have preferred just a tad less sugar (the main ingredient) and a little more salt to better bring out the peanut butter. I'd like a peanut butter Kit Kat better though, if Nestle ever ends up making those.

We here in the UK had a Kit Kat Chunky (same as Big Kat) with peanut butter. It was amazing, but ceased production in 2009; it was replaced by the Kit Kat Chunky Caramel variant. In my opinion, it was a stupid move. Here in the UK there're endless varieties of "caramel versions" of chocolate bars, yet very few Peanut Butter products... I think the UK is as mad about caramel as the US appears to be about Peanut Butter.
ReplyDeleteWe had peanut butter KitKats for a while over here in England. I seem to remember them being pretty good, but it was a good while back. I wonder if they'll do them again...
ReplyDeleteOh whoops - I didn't read that comment first. Silly me... I wish they'd bring them back though.
ReplyDeleteAnd now the only peanut butter chocolates here are Reese's, and Hershey's chocolate is so vile I can't eat them. I miss the peanut butter kitkats an awful lot. Ah well; at least we get turkish delight chocolate over here!
ReplyDeleteThis is an awesome treat!!!! Love the individual packaging .... Easy for those who make bag lunches .... or just to throw in your handbag....
ReplyDeleteExcellent in taste .... don't change a thing about this product....
I think caramel in candy on the whole seems to be richer in UK than in the US. Our mainstream caramel is thicker and not as caramel-y.
